Comments.

The Burlington Free Press in COM
menting on Dorman B. Eaton's ad-
dress at Burlington, has the follow
ing:
Here in Vermont, no man can
name a corrupt or disreputabIe man
who has been placed and kept in any
office Of any prominence by the re-
publicans. There has been no slav-
ISL submission to party tyranny on
the part Of the Vermont republicans
this Mr.. Eaton admitted. There
has been no manipulation Of our poll
itics bv the office holders. No man
can name = republican boss in this
state Civil service reform has here
had the sincere support of the repub-
ican masses, and Of their represent
atives. The change Of parties. which
our independent friends have brought
about, has changed all this. So far
as the federal patronage is concern
ed this state Is under as complete
and absolute boss rule as ever existed
in any community. Two unscrupu-
lous party politicians, themselves
holding fat offices under the govern
ment, parcel out absolutely all the
federal Offices have turned out Of
Office any quantity Of faithful, trusty
and experienced nOn-partizan officials
and have put in their places with
hardly an exception, men whose sole
recommendation is their ability TO
get out the democratic vote By means
Of whiskev, falsehOod and other low
inducements. The two bosses run
the conventions, dictate the nominal
tons, and do all the business Of their
party in this state. They and their
personal followers are the democratic
party of Vermont. The rest of the
party have no voice, or show in any
party matter. They are nowhere.
Civil service reform under such a
condition Of things has here become
a laughing stock and a farce. The
federal service In this part Of the
country il plainly deteriOrating In ef-
fciency. It Is what it might be ex-
pected to be, where the federal Of
fees are more distinctly regarded as
party plumber and are allotted with
less regard to personal fitness and
character on the part Of the appoint
ees. than has been the case under any
administration since that Of Franklin
Pierce. EermOnters, at least, can
not Be blamed if they judge Of the
present administration, and Of the
experiment Of breaking up fairly
good party for the benefit Of much
worse one, BY what they see around
them.
We will not argue the necessity Of
organization, IN order TO carry any
good end. If there is q nO-party-
which viii Be reorganization
lenium coming, It Is not yet here, nor
very near. Parties are here, and
and here TO stay for long while to
come. And it Is simple common
sense for their members u treat
them as they do the houses they live
IN. If these need mending, they
mend them. The sensible man does
not burn his honse over his own
head even if It does not quite suit
him. till he sees q better one into
which he can move"

fell down with moan, and died al

Vermont, tOiled with his father in the
support of a family. His means for
education were limited, but being of
studious habits and an inquiring mind,
he became well informed in current
events, history and some other branch
es- Having engaged in the study of
law at Morrisville, he early displayed
ability and capacity in this direction.
SO that in a very few years after en-
tering practice, he was prominent in
LamOiIIe, Orleans, Caledonia and
other counties. In 1913. he was
chosen one of the Judges of the Su-
preme court, which position he held

ceased. He failed of an election
to the senate before the legislature,
but was sent TO the House five terms
and was an honor to himself, Yer
mont and the country. His career
has been & bright one in the main,
and he has won praise and honors by
the brilliancy of his intellect. what
ever he may have lost by few IN
fortunate things that ought TO have
been corrected. He was q true re-
publican, an honest legislator and
distinguished Judge, but he lacked
somewhat those happy faculties which
endear man TO man and make some,
whether great or not, universally
popular. He was selfish, and as
sumed that his friends and the pub
lie were in duty bound to help him
to positions and honors on account Of
his prestige and his talents. While
many men of his position and his
means make themselves honored and
beloved for acts of kindness and
deeds Of benevolence, he sought pow
er and wealth, and lost in life the
sweet pleasure Of doing good for the
sake of the good. But We do not de-
sire to parade any seeming faults.
He was as well known as anv man in
this part Of Vermont. and his fame
was national. He will be honOred as
8 strong and wise jurist, an able
statesman and a brilliant man. His |
funeral was held at st. JOhnsbury, |
